Dear Joachim, I consider this a flaw of the current hierarchical implementation, or more specifically the module classes of icc/ifort in the easyconfig files. Only icc together with ifort should be classed as a compiler (so icc/ifort should maybe be classed as tools and iccifort as a compiler not a toolchain). It was lmod output like yours that prompted us to use a toolchain-based hierarchical scheme. We've learned that this is difficult to make robust however and get's messy when you have (3 compilers)x(4 MPI implementations).
You can sidestep this issue by adding icc and ifort to the EASYBUILD_HIDE_DEPS env var (or your eb configuration, or the command line) when building software. This will hide icc/ifort by default and they won't show up in your spider output...but doing this means you need to rebuild your module tree (you only need new modules, --module-only, the software installations themselves are fine) Alan On 18 February 2016 at 16:05, Joachim Hein <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi, We use easybuild with an hierarchical naming scheme.

I assume some of the modules involved should load the relevant iccifort to make sure whether loaded via the icc or the ifort route, both modules are present once the scipy is loaded. I am not sure at which level (Python, numpy or scipy) Fortran and C report is required and which module should be modified. I leave that to the experts to decide.
